Newtown team named

[Guest]

Don't think Tasi would be so clueless to not know where Moga is playing... if he said Newtown I'm sure it means that he was a late scratching and will just sit out altogether? :s

or that Tasi is being a sly dog and Moga will run out and shock the Warriors..

[Geohood]

Maybe Smith has confused everyone!!!! bahahahaha (including the players)

[Guest]

I'm hearing Moga's just been spotted with the Loch Ness Monster, big foot and a Sharks premiership!

[Guest]

Can anyone confirm that Symonds is not in the team?

Is he playing for Newtown at the moment?

Smith has been known to not let his players know the real match day lineup till a couple of hours before the game kicks off, the only reason Moga should be sitting this weekend is if that ankle injury has flared up again, if not he needs to be playing somewhere.

also surprised Smith sees Liu next in line and not Evans, wonder if it is salary cap implications making Smith lean one way or another, one thing for sure is Evans and RTS would be taking a good chunk of our second tier cap.

Symonds started in the second row for Newtown.

Newtown 10-6 tagive just scored.

Thanks Fletch.

I honestly thought Symonds was our best last week, I cant believe Smith.
I would say Carney to the wing, BJ to the centres. Maubs into the backrow.

It may have more to do with the fact Symonds came in to replace Maubs and perhaps Maubs will be back in the backrow.

Geez playing Moga out of position on the wing would be pretty dumb and leave him exposed in defence. It would be far easier for him to play centre a position he is used too and would have someone on his inside and outside in the defensive line.

We don't know if he's playing yet or where if he is.

Symonds was solid for his first game this season, didn't think he was near our best though.

Newtown 16-10 up. Another Tupou try. He's having a very good game.

[The General]

If our latest "sensation" Moga is played out of position on the wing in his first NRL game (a la Leulia) it will rate as one of the dumbest decisions in memory.

Who says he's playing out of position? People are making assumptions.

[The General]

Smith does some dumb things but sitting youngsters out who are fit to play is madness if Moga/Alofa Alofa are fit they should be playing somewhere to get match experience.

Are you suggesting Smith sits players out if fit?

[Guest]

Are you suggesting Smith sits players out if fit?

For sure.

Carney last weekend.
Bosden in Rd 1 or 3.
Mortimer in Rd 1?

Yep I know that mate

I was just going off because a few people were suggesting they would put him on the wing or maybe they were thinking Smith would stick him on the wing.
